S5E100: 100th Episode!

Author: Robyn Robertson June 14, 2021 Duration: 1:05:25

That's right! This is Honey! I'm Homeschooling The Kids 100th episode. For the special milestone episode we decided to do an Ask Me Anything where my daughter did the asking and I did the answering. Listeners sent in questions through social media that we answered on the show.

What did they ask?

  • What Are Your Homeschool Fears?
  • How Do You Unschool High School?
  • Have You Learned To Respect Your Kids and Listen To Their Boundaries?
  • What Have Your Kids Taught You About The Best Way To Raise Them?
  • Have You Made Any Big Mistakes That You Wish You Let Others Know About and Maybe Learn From?
  • Favourite Family Activity
  • Unschooling 3 Year Olds
  • How Do You Have The Confidence To Unschool In So Many School Focused Messages Of Our Culture?
  • How Do You See The End Of Homeschooling Your Own Kids?
  • If You Could Have Started Your Homeschooling Journey Differently, What Would You Have Done Differently and Why?
  • What Do Your Children Think Is The Coolest/Best Thing About Being Unschooled?
  • What's It Like Raising Teens In The Iphone Age?

There were so many wonderful, deep questions. They had me really stop to reflect and think. At some points it would start a new discussion with my daughter that would take us in other directions. No, we didn't include those segments in the episode since there were a few private details that we want to keep close. But the answers to the questions were real and vulnerable.

Enjoy the 100th Episode Celebration! If you have any more questions that are burning for an answer, you can contact me HERE.

If you would like to hear my personal episodes, answering questions or telling stories about our experiences, check out my episode on Deschooling or The Homeschool Journey~Your Questions Answered

I hope you like this old picture~ I thought a picture from the beginning of our journey is a fitting one for now ;)

Robyn Robertson hosts Honey! I'm Homeschooling The Kids, a conversation that goes far beyond curriculum choices and into the heart of what it means to learn and grow together as a family. This isn't about presenting a perfect blueprint; instead, each episode feels like an honest chat with a friend who gets it, exploring the nuanced realities of choosing an educational path outside the conventional system. You'll hear from a diverse range of voices-experienced homeschoolers, unschooling advocates, educational researchers, and parents just figuring it out-all sharing their stories, challenges, and triumphs. The discussions naturally weave through parenting philosophies, cultural perspectives on childhood, and practical advice for nurturing a rich, engaging home life. Tuning into this podcast means finding a supportive community and thoughtful reflections on creating a family culture that prioritizes connection, curiosity, and joy. It’s for anyone curious about alternative education or simply seeking inspiration for a more intentional and fulfilling life with their kids.
